Ipseity

"Ipseity"

To complete the mission, you become the mission. To eliminate your target, you become the target.

That's the life of a spy.

But when you've given your life to being someone else, at the end of your career, who are you?

Written / Directed by: Troy Shantz

UPDATE: I wasn't sure on my camera configuration, but I just got my Brevis35 in the mail, so I'm going to be using that with the variety of EOS lenses I already have. so it's official: camera used will be HVX 200 w Brevis 35mm adapter kit. BOO YAAA

Ooh, nice premise. Looking forward to seeing how this one plays out.
Welcome to the fest and happy shooting!

Cool. Welcome.
:beer:
This fest has the weirdest titles so far, "Schittekatter", "Zug Zwang", "Ipseity".

Your title is an anagram for "I spy tie".

Is it about finding a spy with a tie?

 

[troypod]

Ipseity means identity. BUT the spy may or may not have a tie
I was hoping to break the mold of a typical spy film, and look at a spy as a person. not a james bond, smooth operator as much as a person who has a dark reality of doing the jobs that aren't supposed to exist.

Locations: Have confirmed 2 of the 5 locations... still a long way to go before until we shoot anything though. to follow my schedule, locations were supposed to be secured by the 9th.
